Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

Service

Do not put fingers or any objects into the chip ejector or clean out chips while tool is running. Contact with blade drum will cause injury.

Remove plug from power source if it becomes necessary to remove chips. The blades are hidden from view and you may be cut if blade is contacted.

Never use dull or damaged blades. Sharp blades must be handled with care. Damaged blades can snap during use. Dull blades require more force to push the tool, possibly causing the blade to break.

Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Additional Safety Warnings

GFCI and personal protection devices like electrician’s rubber gloves and footwear will further enhance your personal safety.

Do not use AC only rated tools with a DC power supply. While the tool may appear to work, the electrical components of the AC rated tool are likely to fail and create a hazard to the operator.

Wait for the cutter to stop before setting the tool down. An exposed rotating cutter may engage the surface leading to possible loss of control and serious injury.

Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the cutter may contact its own cord. Cutting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.

Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by your hand or against the body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.

Make sure the spring operated automatic retracting rabbet guard returns to blade covering position instantly. The blades are hidden from view and you may be cut if blade is contacted.

Always start the plane before blade is in contact with the workpiece and allow the blade to come to full speed. Tool can

vibrate or chatter if blade speed is too slow at beginning of cut and possibly kickback.

Check the workpiece for nails, if there are nails, either remove or set them well below intended finished surface. If the planer blades strike objects like nails it may cause the tool to kickback and serious personal injury may result.

Unplug the planer before changing accessories. Before plugging the tool in, check that the trigger lock is "OFF". Accidental start-ups may occur if planer is plugged in while changing an accessory.

After changing blades, rotate the blade drum to make sure blades are not hitting any part of the blade head housing and the blade locking screws are tight. Spinning blades could strike tool housing and damage tool as well as possible injury.

Always hold the tool firmly with both hands for maximum control.

Never pull the plane backward over the workpiece. Loss of control may occur.

control the power tool.

Develop a periodic maintenance schedule for your tool. When cleaning a tool be careful not to disassemble any portion of the tool since internal wires may be misplaced or pinched or safety guard return springs may be improperly mounted. Certain cleaning agents such as gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may damage plastic parts.

Risk of injury to user. The power cord must only be serviced by a Bosch Factory Service Center or Autho rized Bosch Service Station.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
